Segregation by sex in Apartment Tower to end next semester
By Frank O'Donnel
Segregation of men and women residents by floor in the Apartment Tower will not be a policy next semester, said Guy Hubbard, director of auxiliary services.
Hubbard said Thursday that students will be placed by need and request, rather than by sex. "The needs are much better handled.” he said.
The Housing Office attempted to keep the sexes apart when making room assignments for the fall 1972 semester, said Herbert Harbeson. director of residence halls and food service.
"It was an attempt that didn't work.” Harbeson said. He explained that the segregation policy was initiated "basically for security reasons—protection of the species. We thought that was going to be a tough part of town.”
He said the university didn't encounter as many problems as it anticipated, which was a factor in changing the policy.
The original plan by the Housing Office called for men residents to be housed on the lower floors and women to be placed on the upper floors.
Since there is an additional charge for some upper rooms, women residents complained that economic discrimination was being practiced against them.
Harbeson pointed out that the policy is no longer in effect, since changes made since the beginning of the year have broken the segregation pattern.
Hubbard, who started at his post during the fall semester, said he did not participate in the decision to segregate by sex. He said the new policy would be much better for all concerned.
The Apartment Tower will continue to be segregated by sex on a room-to-room basis.
University served court summons from Tuition Action Committee
By Don La Plante
assistant city editor
The university was formally served with a summons and a complaint Thursday by the Tuition Action Committee in the group's suit against the raise in tuition.
The secretary of Carl Franklin, vice-president for financial and legal affairs, accepted the documents from Chuck Di Salvo, a law student and a leader of the committee.
The summons was served following a rally by the committee in an attempt to gain student support.
There are two suits, one for law students and one for undergraduates. The suits are being brought to ask for refunds of the tuition increases beginning in 1970-71. The suit also asks the court to declare the 1972-73 increase illegal.
The suit asks forS5 million in damages. This is the amount that has been collected from the tuition increases since 1969, which the committee claims were illegal.
Gerald Kelly, a member of the firm Musick. Peeler, and Garrett which handles cases for USC. said that there was a question on the validity of the service of the papers, since they were not given to a university official.
He said that it had not been determined if the papers had been properly served. He did not know if the university would demand
that the papers be served again if it turns out they were not served correctly.
Julie Bornstein. treasurer ofthe group, said that the group believed that the papers were served properly. Their attorney has told them that a secretary is deemed to be an agent of a person and authorized to accept service.
If the papers are found to have been served correctly, the university will have 30 days to answer or otherwise plead the charges in the Superior Court. If the papers have been incorrectly served, the 30 days will begin from when they are properly served.
The university will not have to directly answer the charges made by the committee in the complaint during the 30 days. It will only have to make some sort of motion or statement to the court. This could take the form of a motion to strike or dismiss the complaint. or some other type of action.
Kelly had no direct comment on the merits ofthe committee's case. However, he said that he will "do whatever is necessary to protect the university in this case.”
Kelly said he believed that the university would prevail in this case.
The case may take as long as a year to two years to come to trial because the case is a civil litigation. This is because ofthe crowded court calendar and.the lack of judges to handle civil cases.

Future of student government will be discussed in meeting
The general student assembly scheduled for Saturday will be an important step in determining the future of student government, Paul Moore, director of student activities, said Thursday.
“This meeting will be part of a process of getting to the point where the issue can be presented to the student body,” he explained.
The conference, w’hich will be attended by over 100 students and staff members, will convene in Law Center 4C at 9 a.m.
There will not be a set
agenda for the meeting. Moore emphasized that this will be essential to the Free Flow of ideas at the meeting.
“We are going into this meeting without any company posture or policy,” he said. “We don't want any solutions imposed on the group in advance.”
Moore said the decision to leave the program open was made at a meeting last w'eek of 13 students reflecting a wide variety of viewpoints within the university community.
James Appleton, vice president forstudent affairs, said
the students thought "if there was a strict agenda, the shadow of manipulation might detract from the subject at hand.”
Appleton will deliver the opening remarks at the assembly, reviewing the recent history of student government as a frame of reference for the meeting.
"WTe hope to get students from diverse backgrounds to talk to each other about what student government means to them, and that some sort of useful conclusion will be .reached,” said Moore.

Professor sees need for justice
By Marc Groothaert
Is there justice at USC? Perhaps there is for culinary workers but professors can find no trace of it.
Speaking at a luncheon sponsored by the Religious Interests Committee. Spencer Pollard. professor of economics and vice-chairman of the University Committee on Faculty Tenure and Privileges, used soft terms and humor to describe what is really a very serious problem at this university.
Pollard, who also serves as a labor arbitrator in what he calls the "real world.” said that in industry relations the words just and justice appear time and time again but at this university one seldom or never hears them. Instead, the words power, revenge and retaliation often come up, Pollard added.
"WThat really bugs me around here is the secrecy. There are no set standards for the faculty. Everyone has a different salary and we don't know how much administrators and fellow professors are earning.” said Pollard.
Pollard suggested outside arbitration as a possible solution to faculty grievances. He said that President Hubbard is committed to "don’t rock the boat” internal mediation channels, but that these channels cannot possibly work at USC. "No one in this university
